We were incredibly fortunate to have Christine as our house sitter. From the moment of booking through to the end of her stay, she was communicative and responsive, which was especially reassuring given she traveled all the way from New Zealand to watch our cat, Buck. Christine provided adorable and reassuring updates throughout her stay, which kept us at ease while we were away. She was incredibly self-sufficient and took excellent care of both our house and Buck. Our cat looked great and was incredibly happy after his time with Christine, which is the most important part for us! We couldn't have asked for a better house sitter and we hope to have her back again in the future. Thank you, Christine, for your exceptional care and dedication! You are a joy to talk with!

We were absolutely delighted to meet and have Del and Christopher care for Izzy, the fish and our home whilst we were away. They stayed in touch. Our home was exactly as it was when we left and most importantly our Izzy was happy and not stressed when we arrived home. I’d have these guys back in a heartbeat! Thank you again

Tracy and Kev were great sitters. They cared for our home and our beautiful girl -Indi, just as we would. Everything was lovely when we returned and Indi was happy and healthy. Tracy and Kev seemed to firm a real attachment and bond with Indi, so she did not seem to miss us and was very happy and settled. We received regular updates and photos while we were away, which was lovely. We would recommend Tracy and Kev and would welcome them back at any time in the future.

Julie took care of my cat for almost 10 days. I managed to also meet her in person the last day. Julie is a kind, funny and tidy person, who took great care of my cat and my home. She sent me pictures and updates without me needing to ask. I am very thankful for her and would recommend Julie to anyone who needs a petsitter.

We once again needed a house/pet sitter to look after our home for our next holiday. So, before I posted my ad on here I thought I would reach out to Chris and Rob first. Thankfully they were available.. As always they communicated well, were very reliable and showed up right on time. When we returned from our holiday, we were welcomed with the most excited and warmest hug from their 2 year old granddaughter. Who is my absolute favourite little person to date. She even painted us a picture for our welcome. The house was impeccably clean and our dogs didn't' even care that we came home (which told us that they had plenty of attention). Once again, I cannot recommend Chris and Rob enough to anyone wanting a beautiful, caring, reliable, clean and very friendly people. I will use them anytime we can.. Thank you guys.. ❤️🙏🏼

Jan and Rod have become firm friends of ours, they have sat for us a number of times over the past few years. They are charming, friendly people and we know we are leaving our ponies and dogs in very caring responsible hands. We look forward to them returning next year, and keep in touch during the year. 5 🤩sitters Fiona

This was the third time Andrea has house sat for us. She is great with dogs, very clean and responsive. We had an early hiccup with a needy dog and she was very responsive and understanding which meant smooth sailing for the remainder of the sit.

Jessie took really great care of our 3 cats. They seemed very relaxed and at ease when we returned home (normally they’re more anxious and skittish). She also occasionally sent photos and updates which was always really nice to receive. It seems there was some good cuddling had :)

This was our first time using zeewoi and we were a little apprehensive, especially as we were going away for almost 5 weeks, but we really didn’t need to be. 

Mary and Kevin were fantastic from the start. They had excellent communication and put us at ease straight away. They looked after both our cats with lots of care and we came home to two very happy and content kitties.  
Mary and Kevin struck the balance just right whilst we were away by keeping us informed of how the cats were and sending pictures of what the cats were up to every couple of days. It was so lovely to know that the cats were enjoying themselves and being so well looked after whilst we were away. 

Mary and Kevin also looked after our house extremely well and we came back to a very clean and tidy home. 

We would definitely recommend Mary and Kevin to anyone needing a house sitter and would love for them to sit for us again if they were ever back in the area.

Julia was an amazing sitter and we couldn't be happier with our experience! From our first contact to when we arrived home after our trip, communication was excellent and we were able to enjoy our time away with complete peace of mind that our pets and our home were in good hands. We particularly appreciated how clean and tidy everything was when we got home with the linens and towels all washed and dried! Our cats clearly didn't miss us a bit - they were relaxed, their coats brushed and were giving us side-eye "oh, so, back to normal then? " looks as we unpacked. Thanks for everything Julia!

Florence and Robert were outstanding sitters.  We asked them to arrive a day early as our guests to learn the routine on our farm.  In getting to know them we found them to be good hearted, down to earth people with a love of animals and diligent in learning our routines to care for our poultry, cats and dog as well as our garden and orchard.  Not a typical or easy sit.  We travelled with ease knowing our critters were being well taken care of.

Arriving home, the house was very clean and looked well cared for.  The animals were healthy as were the garden and orchard.  Out pets missed them when they left – our dog stared down the driveway after them until their car was out of sight.

It is nice to find sitters we would like to hang out with and we look forward to having them sit for us again.

Kimberly was a wonderful sitter who watched our two cats for us while we were out. She was willing to come a day early to help acclimate herself with the animals, and this was exceedingly helpful in making sure the cats would be comfortable with her during our absence. I would highly recommend Kimberly if you're looking for a responsible, caring sitter.

My partner and I left our cat Mango in Lindsey's care for a month so that we could get married.  We were going from FL to ME, so it was a long way from home.  We were gone for a month.  Picking the right houses sitter was important.  We are so glad we picked Lindsey (and she picked us). From before Lindsey got on her plan to fly down, until she was back home again Lindsey was communicative, considerate and positive. We felt like we had a family member staying at our place and because of who she is, Mango and our home's well being was a weight off our mind during the wedding. If the need arises in the future we will definitely be giving her the right of first refusal. Thank you so much Lindsey!

Paige, David, and family were WONDERFUL sitters for my crew! They were so pleasant and personable, and the pets warmed up to them very quickly. Even my rescue cat who tends to stray away from men loved David. I received regular updates and communication (before and during the sit). I truly did not have any concerns while I was away knowing that everyone had such great care and attention given to them. (I know the dogs had a good time because when I came home there was no commotion over my return.) I was away on NYE and Paige had no issues keeping an eye on one of the dogs who has anxiety surrounding loud noises. The family cleaned up after themselves and may have left the house cleaner than when I left! Truly such a great family who I would welcome back any time!

If you are looking for someone to take care of your fur babies and your house while you're away, Daniel is your guy!  I had discovered zeewoi just a couple of weeks before I was to leave on vacation and I was not only apprehensive if the website was too good to be true, but also under a real time crunch.  I reached out to over 100 local sitters and several possibilities fell through.  I was confident I would find the right sitter and when Daniel applied for the sit and I started to text and converse with him, I knew I had found the perfect sitter for my two cats!

Daniel was upbeat and positive, articulate and personable, warm and caring, and he asked all the right questions about Lilly and Eli (I hadn't had the time to complete my Welcome Guide, yet!?!).  I shared that I had an easy cat and problem cat -- Lilly,  who is sweet, social and eats dry food, and Eli who is skittish, was periodically pooping outside the kitty litter box and was eating prescription canned food twice a day mixed with a probiotic and stool firmer.  I asked if he thought he was up for the job and he happily said he was.

Since he flew all the was from Chicago, I thought the least my husband and I could do was pick him up at the airport.  When he arrived, he pulled out his notebook.  He patiently walked with me as I reviewed kitty care, showed him around the house, and where he would be sleeping.  He immediately picked up Lilly who was excited about meeting her new friend and Eli bugged out and down the stairs to the basement (his favorite hiding place!).  We got Daniel connected to the internet, set him up at our dining room table and headed off to airport, leaving our house and kitties in the best of hands.

Daniel wanted to make sure I felt comfortable and assured while we were away.  He made sure to text with me every other day (he had asked my preference earlier), sent photos of Lilly being her cute self while Eli hid during the day although he gave me assurances that he was eating his food and using the litter box (there were a few accidents, but Daniel never complained about these additional duties).    When we returned from our vacation, the house was also spotless and well cared for and Daniel had even washed the sheets for me!

It is with utter happiness and complete confidence that I recommend Daniel as a fantastic Sitter.  He is trustworthy, responsible, caring, and competent, and you can rest assured that both your house and sweet pets will be watched over and treated with TLC -- and will truly be in the best of hands while you are away!

Tracy was an ideal pet sitter when we left for 12 days. She was communicative, friendly, and most importantly took perfect care of our two cats and our house. I would highly recommend her for any sit!

Tonya was great and filled in after our other sitter had to cancel. She was very self sufficient and navigated acclimating herself to everything since she arrived after we left. She gave thoughtful updates on my cat and I could tell she really enjoyed her, so that means the world to me! She left the place immaculate and we will certainly have Tonya back!

Caroline was a fabulous sitter and looked after our cat and the house beautifully. She is sensible and very self-sufficient but also kept us informed. We came home to a happy cat and a tidy house. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to others and hope she will sit for us again in the future!
